Sampsel has worked in Indian affairs as a consultant, as executive director of the Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission, as a reservation program officer for the Bureau of Indian Affairs and as a special assistant to the Secretary of the Interior. “We are fortunate to have a person with the wide range of experience, especially in Indian affairs, that Sampsel has to his credit,” Watt Said. “He will be looked to for policy advice in all areas of Indian affairs in the days ahead.” Ken Smith, Assistant Secretary for Indian Affairs said that he plans to operate, “for the time being at least,” with a two-deputy system —one to handle day-to-day operations of the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the other to work on policy matters. Sampsel will be the deputy of policy matters, Smith said.

Daily removal of plaque by brushing and flossing is vital to the prevention of dental disease. A child’s mouth may not function properly when there is a malocclusion, an irregular bite. This condition can make chewing difficult and may cause a person to select foods that are easy to chew and thus cause a poor diet. Malocclus ion may cause speech impediments and developmen tal problems as well. Questlon:My child’s teeth ere very crowded. Should I have an Orthodontist check this condition? Answer. Teeth that are very crowded are not only unsightly, they may cause various other problems as well. It is difficult to clean and therefore, difficult to remove plaque, the sticky film of harmful bacteria that constantly forms on teeth. Most cases of overcrowding can be corrected. Early diagnosis by a dentist can determine the extent of your child’s problem, often around the age of ten. Treatment varies with each individual, and in some cases treatment may be prevented by early extractions. For others, it is wise to have early treatment undertaken to prevent more extensive and costly orthodontic procedures.
